INTRODUCTION

The dawn of the 21st century has heralded the development of India as an

economic powerhouse powered by a revolution in the knowledge sector.

However, the knowledge economy is not just a synonym for information

economy or the information society. In the present age, knowledge economies

address how information and ideas are created, used, circulated and adapted at

an accelerating speed in’ knowledge-based communities’, i.e. networks of

individuals striving to produce and circulate new knowledge. In knowledge

economies, these capacities are not just the property of individuals, but also of

organisations, which have the capacity to share, create, and apply new

knowledge continuously over a time.

All this is possible with the knowledge Educators, i.e. the Faculty community.

The faculty, who are guiding pillars of the knowledge economy, drive the

education sector. There role in shaping the economy and the personality of

students to take up the challenges is crucial. Universities and Institutes, where

faculty and students constantly challenge the existing boundaries of knowledge

amidst a prevailing culture of knowledge creation, are ideally positioned to be

the powerhouse of the knowledge economy.

Further, despite having one of the largest higher education systems in the world,

only a few institutions of learning have been able to make a mark on the global

stage,i.e.: IIM, IIT, IIS, to name few only. The reason is obvious that a

faculty/human resource that is available to teach the students is par at global

level. The knowledge base, the research output, the training imparted, et al, are

the hallmark in these institutes. Needless to say, the faculty have turned and

driven this knowledge economy in these admired schools.


3

India is positioned to adopt a leadership role in the global knowledge economy

of the future. With all most more than 3500 B-Schools of all varieties across

country, along with the faculty group, a promising future for India is awaited.

But, this promising future depends on how promising are these FACULTY,

especially the young and fresh teachers, who have taken/ will take the mantle of

teaching to the most economic driven course of India-Management Education.

The future lies in these faculty, their excellence, their approach, their innovation

and ideas, their knowledge base, and the methodology with which they drive the

education, per se.

Recognising the importance of having best teachers and teaching community

drive the economy, with passion for teaching, JAIN University propose to

establishment of “School for Management Teachers” for Indian Management

Services. The school would be at the fount of making global knowledge hub

through intensive Faculty Development Training for those who dream of

teaching, especially the management education, a set benchmarks for

excellence. The first and the foremost criteria for a university/institute/college

to be termed as world class is the QUALITY and EXCELLENCE of teachers,

recognised by the society, peers and all the stake holders of the academic world.

The training of teachers in management education (educators) creates a virtuous

spiral of increased quality and excellence, thus pushing the academic institutes

to strive towards better teachers. Students choose management schools, giving

stress to quality teaching, and this is possible with quality teachers, per se.

THE SCHOOL AIM

The school shall stand for Faculty Development Training of the teachers, who

are part of Management Education in India. It shall constantly aspire to impart

all the latest training pedagogy for teachers to drive the knowledge economy.


4

The school also provides for the knowledge manpower needs of the country,

thus, train the teaching Professionals.

Target:

Fresh / Young Management Teachers [1-4 years experience]

Management Students for Employability [Final year]

Objectives:

1. Groom Young/ Fresh Management Teachers

2. Impart various teaching pedagogy

3. Train in Case Study methodology

4. Understand your potential role

5. Function as effective change agent

THE SCHOOL THEME

The school theme would be to create-develop-nurture the Faculty, with all the

possible teaching methods, pedagogy, and therefore, have a team of teachers,

who go to the society to impart knowledge of significance to India. For

illustration, such area of relevance could be: Design, Development and Delivery

of Programs, Qualities and Persona of the Teacher, Curriculum Development /

Planning, Administration in B-School, Pedagogy Approaches, and Research in

B-School, Case Study Approach, and the like. The school also aims at building

competency in teachers in the area of: Communication for Management

Teachers and Researchers; Course Writing for Management Teachers; Research

Methods; Applications for Data Analysis and the Case Method in Management

Education. There could also be a workshop especially on how to develop course

during the training.


5

Further, the school would also go for training in disciplined based courses: like

hr; Marketing; Finance; Strategy; Entrepreneurship; Economics; or and those

subjects which are part of most B-School syllabus and curriculum.

THE ADMISSION

In order to attract bright minds for teaching as their career and future, the school

would formulate policies for admissions to the program and the features

outlined below are only tentative guidelines and may be debated. However, the

procedure depends on the credibility of the admission process, while identifying

the ‘merit of individual’, and flair to be a teacher. But, the focus would be for

those who have decided teaching as their career, who want to develop their

pedagogical and management research skills, and have no idea of how to make

it BIG.

Step 1: A high level of teaching aptitude and interest, demonstrated in the

application form [for fresher’s]

Step 2: A flair for teaching and a strong urge to become a good teacher [1-3

years experience]

Step 3: Those who have NET cleared, and have passion for teaching

Step 4: All who are interested, have intension to become teachers.

The reliability and validity of final admissions to the training program would

depend on the last step of personal discussion/ interview with school experts.

ACADEMIC PROGRAMME

The school, main vision is to develop-nurture passionate teachers to teach the

Management programme, would devise the module/model addressing the issues

and strategies in developing better teachers. The list below is an indicative list


6

of how the training program would be structured. Depending on the time that is

required or that is permissible or that can be spared by participating institutes/

schools/ colleges, it will be designed for:

3 days (each month)

5 days (each month)

7 days (once in two months)

15 days (once in a semester)

30 days (during the semester break)

However, the focus would be entirely on the development of competency

development of teachers, and the ability of teachers to pose a challenge to the

students in the discovery of ideas and leading students in a voyage of

knowledge.

GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE

The Dean/ Director for the School shall be the person responsible for day today

administration and management of the school/ program. The Dean shall report

to the Chairman about the progress of the program. There will be Board of

Advisors, Experts, to advise from time to time. A Committee would be there

selecting final teachers for the program.

INFRASTRUCTURE and OFFICE

Infrastructure in the form of class room, library, photocopy machine, LCD’s,

and the like would be needed.


7

MOU’s

The school would look for MOU’s with IIM/IIT and marked institute to devise

the training modules, methodology, contents, and the like, that is essential for

IMS program. Also, there would be attempt to associate with Overseas business

schools, for content of course development, faculty inputs and talk by overseas

experts, per se.

TRAINERS and EXPERTS

Experts, Professor, Knowledge creators, including Panel of VC’s of different

universities would be drawn up for training the faculty. This would also include

experts from in-house experts. [80% in-house/ 20% outside]

FEES

There could be fees charged (?) depending on the days of program. Few

scholarships / Fellowships would be instituted. There could also be a scheme of

fees charged as 50/70/80% and the like. To make the program visible and value

add, including branding of the program, First year would be with minimum (no

fees) charged. Once the standing of the program is built, than it could be

charged based on the days of training:

1st year: Minimum (no fees)

2nd

year: 5000

3rd

year: 10,000

4th

year: 12000, and the like.

[Rough figures]


8

CERTIFICATE

Those entire faculties who are trained in this school and who complete the

programme satisfactorily will be awarded a certificate, and will become

members of the School Alumni Association. They can also attend all other

disciplined based course, and electives designed by the school from time to

time, with scholarship/ fellowships/ reduced fees.

CONCLUSION

The knowledge revelation is possible only with the dedicated and well trained

teachers, who are passionate about teaching. With the right sprit of training, the

Schools vision of developing “IMS” motto would be fulfilled ,and India, which

is having a deficiency of nearly ONE LAKH management teaching short to

teach at various B-School, would be addressed by this School.

Title: FDP for Teachers working in the AICTE Approved Management institutes in India

[Learning in Practice: A Commitment to Teaching]

Organizer: Jain Group of Institutions

Duration: 3 days(?)

For Whom: Faculty working in B-School, with 1-4 years of experience.

Total Participants: 30 per program

Aim of the Program

The training program is geared to ensure the Quality, Relevance, Excellence and Skills development through up-

gradation of knowledge of B-School teaching community, and to encourage research of high quality standards.

The training program enables participants to develop competency in general management education as well as in

management research and pedagogy usability.

Objectives of the Program

1. To equip with knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to manage an B-School, and develop new ideas,

approaches and methodology[affective learning]

2. To demonstrate the appropriate use of different teaching pedagogy, and acquaint with recent

developments in Teaching and Research methods [Behavioral learning]

3. To explain how to resolve problems at classroom situation and manage the classroom sessions

effectively, and develop new sets of competency and skills[Cogitative learning]

The Genesis of the Present program

The Knowledge base and the Skills Set:

The concern for most organization, Management and B-School is the challenges they face in developing the

greater confidence, initiative, solution-finding, problem solving capabilities and the Teaching-Research-

Administration skills and knowledge of its human resources. As a faculty, it is important to have the

Knowledge-Skills-Attitudes which match in developing and managing the institute or the B –School. The B-

School needs faculty at all levels to be more self-sufficient, resourceful, creative and knowledge in academic

area. The more the knowledge about different skills that B-School needs, the better it would be to manage the

school, per se.

Infact, this knowledge-skills – attitude behavior would enable the faculty to operate at higher strategic level,

which makes their organization and B-School more productive and competitive. Peoples efforts produce bigger

results and its what all the organization strives to achieve. However, while conventional skills training gives

people new techniques and method, it won’t develop their maturity, belief and/or courage, which is so essential

for the development of managerial and strategic capabilities of the B-School. But, the crucial fact lies here is the

training that has to be given to the Faculty who are working in the B-School. Thus, the need for such design,

which enables the faculty to quip with the K-A-S to work – manage- develop the B-School.
